"Sure, Your Majesty. I'll try my best to help." Lady Sri answered the emperor's question sincerely.
"Tomorrow, I will set out to war against the small eastern outlying kingdom. As you know, they are trying to seize one of my territories. That way, Empress Tasia will be alone for a few weeks. If you don't mind, can you please stay here until I came back from the war?" Hadyan asked.
Lady Sri looked at Tasia who gave a hopeful face with sparkling eyes. Then she smiled and nodded, "Sure, Your Majesty. I will accompany the Empress until your return."
"Oh.. Thank you very much, Lady," Tasia said happily.

Even though having to let Hadyan go to war was very hard, at least there was someone to fill the emptiness in Tasia's heart this time.
"Farewell, King Hadyan. I pray that the war ends quickly with your victory." Lady Sri said.
